MYANMAR’S BEST LOCAL AND INTERNATIONAL COMPANIES SHOWCASE THEIR EMPLOYER EXCELLENCE IN FIRST ANNUAL COMPETITION
9 NOVEMBER, 2017 - YANGON, MYANMAR: JobNet is happy to announce that several local and international companies have applied for the “Best Rewards and Recognition Program” award. This award recognises innovation and excellence in employee reward and recognition programs and initiatives. Judges will not only be looking for innovation, but also strategy, implementation and results. Judges will base their scores on the descriptions of the reward and recognition programs and initiatives the business has in place. Each applicant must present strong evidence to show how these initiatives have impacted employee satisfaction in a positive manner, corroborated by stable employee retention and return on investment. An analysis showing how rewards and recognition have contributed to the organisation's goals is also necessary.
“One of the things we’ve noticed is that most people do not leave companies solely due to salary and benefits,” said Matt De Luca, Managing Director of JobNet.com.mm. He went on to say, “Some applicants are presenting both individual and team-based incentives, along with traditional performance bonus packages. Some applicants are asking how individual employees want to be recognized and have discovered key data points that are economical, affordable and simple to implement. So far, the judges have been very impressed with some of the unique solutions for both local and international firms.”
Winners will be announced at a Gala Awards event at the Sule Shangri-La Hotel on December 9th 2017. Tickets are available at $100 USD per person, or you can take advantage of a 10% discount by securing a table of ten for $900. Contact our MEA team at [email protected] or call +95 (0) 9 977285890 to book your table before they run out.
